Red Carpet Dressporn: The 2016 Emmy Awards

The celebrity stylists must have been working overtime this year in preparation for the 2016 Emmy Awards, as there were so many good looks on the red carpet. Most attendees were playing it safe and smart this year, which is nice for us dressporn gawkers, but kind of boring at the same time.

The dresses that were featured on the red carpet will likely reflect the bridal gown trends of the future, so let’s check these out.

I dislike Amy Poehler’s look – not hate, but dislike. It looks like its cold there, and it was quite the opposite. I love the peridot color of this Pamela Rolland gown, but I hate it next to bright red.

Ok, so either I didn’t know, or I forgot that Kerry Washington was pregnant. Oops! But here she is, belly-cupping on the red carpet in Brandon Maxwell. Very sophisticated and beautiful dress. Great job Kerry!

Ok, next in line for my Best Dressed after Judith Light is Sarah Paulson. This emerald Prada gown fits like a glove, and her whole look is so regal. I think she came to the Emmys to slay, and she did it.

Christian Siriano is quickly becoming the designer to go to when you need to slay the red carpet, but have some boobs and hips. Other designers don’t want to dress women unless they haven’t eaten for 4 years. Christian created this spectacular dress for Niecy Nash, and everyone fell in love with it last night.

While the rest of the internet appears to have mixed feelings about Emilia Clark’s look, I feel underwhelmed. I think that this Atelier Versace dress could have been great if it Emilia was styled differently. Makeup, hair, and jewels can make a real difference.

I’m not a big fan of Giuliana Rancic because I think she is unhealthily thin, but she looked really good in the Georges Chakra dress and cape last night. But perhaps covering the protruding collarbones was the goal?
